A couple of times a year I put together a client appreciation event to thank past and current clients, as well as friends that refer new clients to me. For the first time, I’m holding a Junk Haul and Shredding event. So please consider yourself invited!

When: Saturday, February 11 from 9-11 a.m.
Where: The Parking Lot at George Yeonas Park (otherwise known as Vienna Little League)
What: If it fits in your car, bring it!

The event is being co-sponsored by Jon Okun at Prosperity Mortgage.

Junk Haul and Shredding is provided by It’s Haul Good. Here are the guidelines for what’s accepted:

Junk & Donations

  • Junk or donations accepted include any household items or very small furniture/appliances. Quantity accepted per individual can not exceed one car’s trunk space worth of items.
  • Cannot accept large furniture items, household chemicals or paints, or building materials.
  • Attendees of this event can schedule a crew to come pick up larger items or volume at a later date for 10% off our normal rates!

What about clothes?

Absolutely, we can take clothes since we will be heading to a donation center anyways!

Can you take electronics and old TV’s?

Yes, we can take old electronics, old televisions, and other electronics. However, we will not be offering data destruction for this event, so any hard drives or stored data (tablets, desktop cpu’s, cell phones) will not be wiped and therefore could be compromised. We recommend that folks drop these off at e-cycling centers like Potomac E-Cycle for larger items, or for smaller devices, the convenient locations of ecoATM.

Shredding Guidelines

  • Secure Containers, Shredded Off-Site
  • No hard drives or CD’s accepted
  • No Certificate of Destruction provided on-site
  • Additional list of items that are NOT accepted — Butane/Propane Tanks, Chemicals, Cleaning Products, Electronics, Fertilizers, Motor Oil, Pesticides, Pharmaceuticals, Roofing Material, Wet Paint

NOTE: If you have shelf stable food that is NOT expired, please bring it! We’ll collect it all and drop a donation to Food for Others after the event.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at Laura@GuidingYourMove.com or by phone at 703-283-6120.

Also, please pray it doesn’t snow! If there is snow or ice, please check my Instagram or Facebook page for information on cancellation!

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
